Book Introduction
'If I could turn back time, I would go back to that time and ask.
Did you really do that?
Are you really a molka perpetrator?'
A shocking rumor about your first love, even before you confess!

But behind it all, there's definitely something there.

Author Beom Yu-jin, who has presented a variety of works and delivered stories that resonate with the times, has returned to readers with her new work, "Rewind Bakery."
A boy who is driven to extremes by false rumors and the main character, Hanbyeol, who has a crush on the boy.
This is a so-called time leap novel, where Hanbyeol's imagination of 'what if the rumor wasn't true?' becomes reality through the 'time cookie' of the magical space 'Rewind Bakery.'


During one class, Hanbyeol sees the back of her first love, Seonggeon Seo, outside the window and realizes that it is the last time she will see Seonggeon, who has transferred schools.
The frustration of having his first love end before he could even confess is fleeting, but he hears the shocking news from his friends that Seong-geon was a 'molka perpetrator' at school.
Rewind Bakery appears in front of Hanbyeol, who is in such a state of confusion.
There, Hanbyeol, who was chosen by the time cookie, goes back to exactly one month ago, the moment when her first love, Seonggeon Seo, became a molka criminal.
As she traces the truth behind the invisible rumors, the shadow of school violence gradually looms, the friendships she believed were strong crumble, and the attitude of those around her who pay more attention to rumors than the truth push Hanbyeol into an increasingly difficult situation.


This is a moving piece that finally shines with the strong solidarity of the main character, Hanbyeol, who, despite persistent rumors and threats, moves forward with only one strong belief that it is the right choice, and Seonggeon, Yuna, and Soojung, who courageously stand up to false rumors and never let go of each other's hands.
In 『Rewind Bakery』, the protagonist Hanbyeol struggles to turn back time, solve problems on her own, and fulfill her wishes without relying on fantasy powers, which is particularly impressive.

Into the book
I sometimes imagine that.
If I could turn back time, what would I do?
Everyone has a different time and reason for wanting to return, but everyone has their own sense of urgency.
Going back to the past, which could completely change the present, would require considerable determination.
That's why I hope that any time travelers out there, who may be out there, can have a happy ending if possible.
Provided that their wishes do not presuppose the misfortune of others.
--- From the author's note

Publisher's Review
'Rumors are waves.
A wave that anyone can't help but be swept away by.'
A rumor spread through the school like an epidemic!
Can Hanbyeol become a vaccine that is immune to rumors?


The novel "Rewind Bakery" begins with Hanbyeol's perspective as she hears about a rumor that spreads like wildfire.
On the day when Hanbyeol witnesses Nayuna standing precariously on the rooftop after her first love, Seonggeon Seo, transfers schools, she hears a shocking rumor that Seonggeon had installed a hidden camera in the school's temporary locker room and was caught.
Hanbyeol can't easily believe what Seonggeon said, as he was the one who smiled brightly while trying his best to find the precious belongings left behind by his grandmother.
“……If I could turn back time, I would at least ask,” sighs Hanbyeol, who happens to stumble upon the ‘Rewind Bakery’, where she half-doubtfully eats the ‘One Month Cookie’ that can turn back time by one month, and ends up going back to the exact moment when Seonggeon was caught by Lee Chanwoo while installing a hidden camera.
In this way, Hanbyeol becomes the only witness to the truth about the 'molka criminal Seo Seong-geon' and the reason why Nayuna screamed on the rooftop.


From that day on, Hanbyeol decides to be the first person to believe Yuna and Seonggeon, no matter what rumors spread.
It is a courage that I would never have been able to muster if I had not turned back time and witnessed the truth.
However, that bold courage and determination turns even Hanbyeol into a party to the rumor and a victim.
Rumors spread quickly and cleverly among children, and their impact becomes even more severe in the closed space of school.
The more you try to suppress rumors, the more they reproduce themselves, and even though more victims continue to appear, rumors still take the place of the truth.


However, Han Byeol, the only witness who knows the truth, does not cower or cower in the face of groundless rumors, but holds on tighter to the hands of Seong Geon Seo, Na Yu Na, and even Soo Jeong, who was already frustrated at the threshold of her idol debut due to groundless rumors.
Armed with the armor of faith and solidarity, he proves that Time Cookie's faith was not wrong.
Then, surprisingly, the flow of rumors that had been spreading like poison began to change.
A tight-knit group of believers finally cuts the tail of the rumor, and the rumor turns against its original creator and perpetrator… …!

In the conclusion of this book, author Beom Yu-jin impressively speaks to the power of truth in the face of the not-so-light psychological violence of rumors.
Although truth may seem insignificant in the face of the enormity of groundless false rumors, it emphasizes that there is certainly hope if there is just one person who believes in the truth.
The novel "Rewind Bakery" resonates with readers, urging them to never abandon their faith in truth.

“I only believe what I see.”
If I could turn back time and change my past self,

If something you only imagined becomes reality and unfolds before your eyes,
Could we really make the right choice back then?

There is no life without regrets.
Because humans have regrets, they can change and develop.
Even so, everyone must have imagined it at least once, or more than once.
‘If I could go back in time… … .’ ‘If I had made a different choice back then… … .’ ‘If I hadn’t said that back then… … .’ ‘If I had told my honest feelings back then… … .’ etc.
The same goes for Hanbyeol in the novel.
Even though I was able to turn back time at Rewind Bakery and go back to the past month I so desperately wanted, reality is still full of choices I have to make, and regrets keep repeating.
The time cookie was just an opportunity, it never changed the future.
Even if you could turn back time, the choice would still be yours.

Author Beom Yu-jin has portrayed the character of Han-byeol, who constantly struggles to ensure that the only truth she has witnessed can steer the situation in the right direction.
Hanbyeol's positive imagination opens the door to Rewind Bakery and becomes the key to saving Yuna, Seonggeon, and Soojung.
Even though she knows that if she could turn back time, not only the present but also events, relationships, and perhaps even her heart might change, Hanbyeol's choice to bite into a monthly cookie, a daily cookie, and an hourly cookie without an inch of hesitation in the face of others' misfortune shines brightly every moment.


The novel ends with the story of Rewind Bakery, which watched over Hanbyeol's every choice until the end.
The final epilogue, which is like a gift, deeply moves readers by suggesting that the earnest faith and actions of Hanbyeol, Seonggeon, Yuna, and Sujeong were the driving force that could change the present.
